LTT Podcast EP #03 - The Soul, Farming Cheese and Wine.

wine and milk are the most sensitive liquids it's really boring that's why these kids are not looking to be there anymore in this system there's a high wallace thing everything has to be done in house one of the biggest giants in general i remember that tattoo whenever i ask for more he says no you have to earn that in this place at the end of the day you make cheese out of it and you sell it as a commercial product what is the difference between the cheese that we all see in the supermarkets a good burger comes from a prime piece of beef so one of them [Music] hi and welcome again to let's talk tactless we appreciate you being with us to watch and join our beautiful program today we have a very unique and special guest in our studio mr jacob yankee yakov um soon you'll find out as i always tell you why it's so unique and special to have him here um so let's get going yankee hi hi i get to work and i'd like to challenge my guests and ask them why are they here why are you here yeah i think it's very simple he asked me if i want to be here the answer is probably no but you know i want you a long long long time friend i mean we're going back to uh i said the late 80s correct and you know you're doing something new right when you know sometimes i do ventures and stuff for this i get you involved i send it to you to your comment so i guess you uh picked me up to pick one of your guests to do that i'll try my best yeah before we go forward i want to share with the audience a very interesting little story ahead with yankee two years ago hanukkah as you know we all do some big nice chanukah events with our families we want to create harmony and love and some kind of family so usually each family has one night that they gather all the kids and they make a big event and two years ago before hanukkah i get during chanukah i get a phone call from yankee says mr b i need you tonight emergency i said one minute is hanukkah i have my plans i have to check my calendar check with my wife what happened he says do me a favor try to make it be my house tonight after tending whenever 8 30 9 o'clock i know usually when yankee invites me it's it pays to go anyway to make a long story show to make an amazing story short yankee and his wife have a very beautiful custom in the hand capari they create a contest a cooking contest between all the married children and each of the couples is investing a lot of creativity and time and resources whatever they can to come up with a very very unique dish and yankee asked me and my wife to come over to the meal and join the family and be the judges which of the couples which one of the which couple should be the winner and should be should be getting the reward let me tell you this was a one of a kind event to see the the chemistry between the family it was beautiful to see it was not a fight it was a beautiful event everyone was happy to see the other person's successes and achievements it was really really unique amazing amazing event by the end we had to choose unfortunately only one winner oh we had three categories yeah we three categories we had presentation we had taste and we had a freshness or something like this what was the third it was creativity taste and presentation all right creativity it was a very difficult challenge because they were all amazing and we chose my wife and i had our own little notes and we wrote the details and we happens to be we both came 90 to the same conclusions and when i asked yankee after the event so what price is the couple getting for winning she told me something amazing he's sponsoring for this couple a culinary course correct a professional course to invest and improve their knowledge their talent development obviously we're dealing here with a person who is into bringing out the best in human beings and seeking the talents and making not lemonade out of lemon but making lemon out of lemonade so we're going to talk to him about a few adventures that he's involved with um i'm going to start by asking you a very simple question as you said in the beginning it's really you're the you are the guest i'm talking a little too much but i'll give you some the microphone the podium i asked you in the beginning as you said in the beginning that we know each other for many years and i really want to go back to the beginning of time i want to tell the audience before i ask this question that yankee is a entrepreneur in the field of farming very surprising soon you'll hear some more details but he's he has his own he took his own ideas and creativity and he put it into action and he has a very unique farm upstate new york in which is doing beautiful and amazing new things so my question to you will be what takes a israeli young a boy that comes from a very special family from israel and very known famous shakhtar family in nebraska a wealthy family a hazard family and maybe you should talk a little a word or two about your family about your background about your father and parents and what brings you to become an entrepreneur in the farming industry come on um oh i mean there was a a question that requires i think more than one uh podcast yeah okay but i'll try to do well we'll invite you for more oh thank you i'll uh let's see how that goes then i'll tell you if i want to continue um yeah it's a it's a good question and and uh interestingly i tell you i'll try to make it very brief because you know i can put you uh 30 some years so maybe i should say close to 40 in in how long 45 minutes we're gonna that's gonna be pretty boring um if i go back to like you said at the start what brings me uh from a family like this i think this is probably what dragged me into it and i'll i'll say it like that you know we have a person we said hashem mitza they gave that means that any path that you end up going in life or any venture that you are doing in life regardless what what you choose to be if you want to be a uh you know a teacher or a curling man or or or on a business or be a professional it's my hashem it's that they gave you because and they say that comes with that too and once you choose the path again it's been paid plowed paved and and walk along till you reach you your destiny your goals whatever so yeah like you said the family the my my father was a well-known ish i said i mean something in a magnitude that is not to find today with can i know that we have a lot of hazard around in the street today i mean in i would say even in in mega sizes but what an individual did back then by himself was enormous amount of casa the well-known and in i remember when i mean i was 19 years old when he passed away there was a long time ago and back then the stifle that came to mankind was his it was hey i think is a a half a year before he passed away that yeah he was climbing up the three stories and then came up and this and they said be sure my friend we wanted to go downstairs you know a good like this is a hard time to climb up the steps and i said no no no no nobody should he comes to me into the house where where it all all wars and all happened and it moves it took him about half an hour to climb up these three stories with resting like you know in the in the steps a little bit today finally he made it it took him to time to take his breath and he didn't say a lot but he said this is the the that rock was going in hassan he extended even that they said of the schwageroth so let's explain it to the audience they wrote on his life they wrote one one biography if they bought one book i said for this for a bit you can write eight books and it's not gonna be power he's not sure if they can put everything in it he said they joined us that he hadn't casted and said and he said this this way this is what i know i said that you can imagine that other people know more than that so sure that that was um right now you asked me how this is coming into farming and business and that so i would say first of all it's not yeah i mean if somebody owns a farm you call it farming but it's not really it's not it's not really farming soon and okay and and but it's uh and you asked me how i got to it this is i own the business it happened to be that i had an electrical supply um back in 2008 to 13 whatever i was afraid i remember it like today was a friday pretty much like after hotzois i would say a boy walks in like he said a real you know how they say it in in in english obviously there's a yiddish boy that has all kind of tattoos you cannot recognize that he is uh nothing but he has some kind of a edelkite in in his talk and what do you want so he's asking me for a few things he happened to be i remember it like today he wanted to make for his mother uh air conditioned line because it was somewhere was that that oh i love my mother and this and that and somehow when he's and i helped him out and somehow when he slipped out from his mouth that i got to do it before shabbos because i said wow then okay it means that my wife is sitting over there in the booth like um she's watching that you know she runs the computers and then she's looking at that and it's okay so i picked him up and listened and he left him and that i remembered that tattoo that tattoo was familiar to me then i found out that you know i'm you know remember me that i'm a builder already for 30 some of 34 years he was working for a demo company that did for me once all right when he walked in you saw the tattoo looks familiar i did i could remember the tattoo because usually when i see something i remember it and i remember that tattoo and i could not figure out where do i know these the two from and you know tattoos could be whatever let's not spend that tattoo is a yiddish boy with tattoo like this i mean if if i go on the street i mean i won't even think twice unless he here like you said he opened his it slipped up with his mouth and um so he leaves he paid he leaves out my wife is coming out there's like a little a few steps she literally collapsed out from the steps and she told me yankee what is it like i said what said did you just see this boy i said how come i i mean this is it's a real nice jewish kid he's so sweet and so anal and he's so devoted he loves his mother what is he coming in to to be like that well you know this is the matias you know it's a that that's unfortunate unfortunately we have it on the street it takes a few days by i was very nice to them those kids are having a click a club that i found out later a little bit and there's a few of them like starting to come ask for things and these are these very nice people they give you a nice order they talk to you nice they accept you that's basically what these boys are uh uh missing lacking yeah and my wife was talking to them and this and they used to come and start hanging out you know i used to give them some call will buy some what do you call it um this fish with a sushi i bought them sushi they always got they could get a free soda with it and you know you you know give them a warm heart and you know so so i start like having other one day my wife said why don't you do something for them and i start breaking my head i mean what can you do for them and then i came to a conclusion said why should i go to that stage i mean maybe we can stop it before and how we do that i came up with a crazy idea i i you know i approached you back then there was a long time is that and i said you looked at me and said every time my ideas is kind of a little weird and crazy and yes but i'm not but i didn't change my opinion yet on this yeah right but sometimes they a little like you know they pretty much yeah they premature for the for the for the timing and i said yeah i got the idea i'm going to open up for them a farm a shiva on a farm it's every child that is you know and you know not every kid is really feeling in a neigh shiva but he's not a special ed kid or anything it's just it's like he's not suitable for that big deal so i came up with i developed a plan with a vocational system you know anything that from from blue-collar trades to computer high-tech and anything and i had all the support and then and i started to look for and i ran this idea by a few dollars and serious guys i mean i would mention the kosovo rabbit show i went to rabbi bender they all gave me like the real little push go ahead so i i spent the fortune of money and time to do that and obviously you going to farms and look and locate the other side i want to interrupt your minute yeah okay kelly seoul just lost like about 10 days ago two weeks ago one of the biggest giants in generic in in understanding the nephesh and the and the hearts of these kind of kids are by the high wallace in and he maybe 30 years after you or 25 years after you came up with the same idea and he was busy for a few years as many people know looking and looking and looking till he found the farm which had a lot of benefits he has a long story of that how it was shared for him but the bottom line was that he gave his life in nephesh his heart and soul for this exact purpose to educate and help and occupy boys in his case girls to overcome the social problems and social guards and open up and build a certain level of responsibility of a certain level of devotion and a certain level of interest in life in time management in steadiness in in responsibility and obviously this was one of the most amazing things that he was proud of and nobody is going to say that the high wallace thing was a a horse dealer everybody will say in shamam in himmel everyone will say he was a dealer of nicholas so i really wanted i think the timing is amazing that you're telling us the story because it's really a unique way a deep way of a long-distance way of thinking of how we can help you this and the show is amazing so yeah he was uh very into it i mean we have one we did it at the same time you know parallel but i tell you what it's a it's a mega undertake to do these things like i said i went i looked at farm sites and these i actually bought two farms they were pretty large you know 127 acres another one was 160 acre and um and trying to this then i realized what kind of money i'm into it and and and uh and i study i study this whole business i mean what they're gonna do over there how can you occupy you're looking my choice to to do a farm a you out in the it's not the wilderness it's it's you you're out there you you have to overcome challenges that supplies a lot of work and a lot of time the main thing is is is occupational therapy over here you know the these are young souls the soul is by nature looking for something you know for some kind some kind of address some kind of uh satisfaction or something like that and that can bring a lot of satisfaction satisfactory into the to the person a by okay you have to let's say you have to cut the field you start cutting the field and you're making like lines you know sometimes you see people cut the grass they said i cut the diamond shape you see they go crisscross and they it's it's really nice how it is it gives you some kind of i can keep up with he's proud of him driving this this this lawn mower and and do that the other one is like uh you have to build a nice pen a nice uh a little barn you have to there's a lot of things that demand time challenge mental uh uh emotion you have to be the wrong yeah it's a mental challenge something you don't start you have to finish you have to calculate you know put up a list together there's a lot of things that there's a lot of areas that you develop it's not like just a school system okay you come the program is written from from beginning to the end and then you have to follow the path it's really boring that's why these kids are not looking to be there anymore in the system so they need this separate company this is a challenging system and you know how they said farmers they never go to sleep they never wake up and they say so it keeps you busy besides that when it comes to the vocational school that comes with a school that okay you have to devote a few hours for to finish up your high school this getting uh education credits credits and and being and and acquiring a skill also that can make you a a nice provider for family and uh and that makes you a mention also you know it puts you into a uh you understand that i mean that it was so unique that i explained it to you once back then and you looked at me like um something is is his thing he said yeah he said and let me tell you something i spoke to a big people in in in in israel when i visited there the whole thing and and he's giving me a a good um it's not i didn't get a boa i got a lot a lot longer than just a bar and and and they were the uniqueness was that they they boys they run themselves the the shiva the cooking the the the baking the cooking and everything has to be done in house so one of them will become a good caterer the other one who got a party planner you know every night you have to put up a dinner and at dinner is not you're not throwing a few plastic plates on the table i mean this is real dishes like you saw in my house that we did this competition well every one of my kids knows that because it's i mean it's it's kind of me a little bit so that's what i wanted to give over the kids if you put already a meal right make it already tasty if it's already tasty make it already look nice make it appetizing you know and there's a use some nice dishes set them up nice you know make an environment and let them do that each one of them will grow up to be uh i find the bala boost you know something a fine schmecker basil it's not it's not a hiso yeah and and and you can take something that you would maybe call in the kinderfield like this is the trash of the this this is going to be you know when i say one man's trash is the other man's goal that's going to be really the gold fruit of of something like that it takes an enormous amount of money to put something like that and i realized that instead of being busy with that i'll be busy with fundraising this is something that i'm you know from all my talents that you know me this is i don't have it you know i already i agree with myself you don't want to be this is not me and and okay and i let it go but the bug you know they said the virus was already in me because when i learned that i learned another unique thing is i studied that to the depth i said these two models how to set up an institution like this basically it was developed by two giants one is america lublin which put the first he basically laid the foundations how yeshivas are running in the in the in the you know in the 20th century right i mean you have a building you have a administration you provide for the military you know the whole that was his side then the second to him was the ponyville now the difference between these two people is like this ramayana shapira spent the rest of his life it wasn't too long and he really ended up short running and collecting a dollar to a dollar to a dollar to adal he spent away from home once he opened up that she was very little time in that the ponyville also spent his life in america but he built up a financial engine to keep the fever so he shouldn't have to do it all the generations after him because he's always the successor the fourth the successor is not always capable as the founder or whatever vice versa right so he had he took a different model and i realized that the model of the pony which will probably keep you alive a little longer and more sustainable and i was looking for a financial engine what to do so i figured you know i studied that part too and i realized that you know cheese wine is a little issue because you're dealing with youngsters you can't do that because it's you know it collides with the laws but cheese is something that could be done over there and that could be a really uh nice financial engine to keep the thing so if you have milk we have goats they gotta get up they gotta do this there's a lot of work involved and at the end of the days at the end of the day you make cheese out of it and you sell it as a commercial product like anywhere else keeps you the reward that that covers the gap that you don't have to go to collect i mean the money comes you just have to put it online and and the money comes into the you know how they said that that's interesting the cards are uh so obviously okay go no continue continue uh well but like i said it did not mature to to come with this because you know the seed money is uh is a fortune and so okay you know i tried i did my best like i said i said my my like my wife asked i said what can you do for that i tried i really tried hard it didn't work but the knowledge was already there and like i said the virus and the bug didn't leave me alone and i was i said you know what like i said i like to venture things and as being a builder i mean when i moved a lot of my building ventures through upstate new york but i just like i said my hashem it said they gave her i just happened to have that people ask me to go out there and to do it for them and i went and i used to live on a i mean i got a good deal in the most decent hotel that was there at that time a lot of i spent a lot of time over there and still looking for the you know the bug of the farm i said one day this because i fell in love in love with this when these things and and i studied it i also went like to cornell university and i i i yeah i study already yeah because once i start taking the licensing and look what into it and then how did this thing work you know i like to know that you know how does the mechanism work what's what's in it is there's a lot in it and a lot laws regulations and i said okay i'll go and uh then i then i i did over there but there's i studied dairy science and then i study also raising cattle and stuff and that which is on the way from farming yeah because so i i i got already the knowledge and and i really loved it and the truth the truth is like this you know that i'm a winemaker already for more than a decade and i learned i i was self-taught and and thank god you know my my you know my wines yeah you know you know you're tasting them and by the way when i when i came out of this beautiful chanukah party i was rewarded with a very very two bottles of very very delicious wines which i never whenever i asked for more he says no you have to earn that in this place you just you just you don't just get it you have to do something for it and i appreciate it because i believe in working hard and deserving things not just freebies in life makes us better people i i'm a cheese lover too i love cheese and i know it's i okay i don't want to start you know you know i don't want to start with these cheese distributors because they they're quite powerful but i said it wasn't what i'm looking for you know it's let's yeah so let's give the audience a quick a quick um pause over here and discuss in short what is the difference between the cheese that we all see in the supermarkets the groceries we take off on the shelf and we take home versus the cheeses that mr schechter is talking about that you're talking about they take a lot of knowledge and science and know-how and is destined for unique markets and people who really have a deeper flavor for life of a food that's one question the next question will be also in very short um words in the process of wine making like what is the difference between a 30 dollar wine bottle and a hundred and i'm not going to talk about two thousand dollar wine bottle like what goes in to making a real real good bottle of wine so it's two two questions both are up your alley in short because we are in constraint of time uh i'll tell you what they said the the is uh there is a book there is a book in a very famous book in america the guy that saved chrysler [Music] one of these chapters that he writes in the book he said he used to work for ford she said emily ford took him down to the kitchen into the kitchen and in the headquarters they had a massive commercial kitchen over there he took him in to the kitchen down and he went into the meat locker he opened up the thing he took like a big prime steak a piece of beef they took him and he threw it in the meat grinder got the meat out of the grinder and went with him to the grill and put it up and made like a delicious burger he gave him to eat and yes and what if i i don't know if i'm quoting him exactly but the idea was there and the bottom line is that the moral of the story was that a good burger comes from a prime piece of beef you can't take the you know what you throw out or the other left yeah the the the the lesser grade the lower grade stuff and try to make a good thing out of it it said that you have to understand this is a rule of life when you want to have a superb product you have to start with a good prime raw material that was his message that he wanted to deliver and then wine and cheese starts in the same thing the grapes have to be grown you know to perfection they have to be a good hurdle of of grapes they have to be good grapes they have to be grown to all the perimeters to finish up by the time of the harvest the harvest is a timing you got to get the chemistry boundaries you know talking about sugar i said you know 3h the whole nine yard what's involved i mean i'm not going to give a wine course over here but this and then the harvesting the process of the harvesting is the the speed that it comes in to crush the fermentation the it's a whole process that you have to you have to analyze every step of the way has to be analyzed like you know you take a few grapes you take a drops there's a there's a special tool that checks the sugar you check acidity when you hit the perimeters you check how this is the barometer what is the temperature what is that the perfect harvesting of a perfect product is a good start from there again the labs are monitoring every step of the way how dilute not that they would bump up this level down this you know to keep the perimeter and as far as you go in the process of crushing fermenting uh soaking it it's the whole uh we're not going to make this it's a long process how you do it and if you do it right and you monitor what you're doing and then it comes into how to tank it and burl it and and then monitor it in in the in the cellar you're going to end up with a good product so obviously you said you know when you get when you do all these things these things are the product of grape this has a higher cost because it comes in you believe it or not sometimes in the crops in order to deliver these things you have to go there with scissors and cut off leaves because if you have too much nitrogen on the ground it'll grow too much green if it goes too much green it covers the grapes if the grapes are covered they don't see sun if they don't see sun they don't deliver the amount of sugar that you want then you have issues with how to bring the alcohol or you have to wait longer for that to be sweet but meanwhile you're losing on the tataric acid they're starting to decline i'm getting all these words it's a whole it's a whole some sense the growing process sometimes also when you want to extract flavor from the ground what it is you believe it or not you can go and they trim up to 50 of the crops you have real good grapes they're not ripe yet to to be done but they cut them off the tree and let's say if they uh parcel will give them let's say five ton they'll only come two and a half ton out of it to make the to make the other part better and a superb a product to start more exposure to the oxygen yes so that that these things this pampering of of growing is is matters it matters yeah and and at the end you get paid by the tonnage so the price of the tonnage is this but you know two and a half ton will give you only a half of the liquid that it gives you at five pounds so that that that effect is in the cost cheese now cheese is a different story but again you need a superb number one you need a superb product a milk milk has is called a somatic cell you're allowed to have in cow's milk up to 750 000 somatic cells per you know that's uh that the measurements and this that goes that's the boundary industry boundaries that you're allowed to have in goats and sheep that comes to 1.5 1.5 million but the less cell somatic cells that you have in the middle the milk is cleaner the more like the more the more the is clean is like you know it says crystal clear from this like uh uh the the better the milk is the fresher the milk is that's a good start after that comes the culture comes the knowledge of the it's timing it's been done and you know the acidification and coagulation and and and how it's been deeped and how the how it's been washed of course it has to do with them i'm dealing with yellow hard cheeses you know so those aged cheeses those as a different process than regular kimchis and and and and the goats pouches that you buy those those are those are grade a uh so yeah the process and good cultures good practice cleanliness sanitation i mean milk is something that can interestingly wine and milk are the most sensitive liquids in the food business wow the only differential between the difference between them is the wine will not kill you if it goes bad but milk can really put somebody down under the ground it's serious it's serious so obviously you have a magnet to to sensitive and delicate um [Music] materials that hashem made in this world you have a it started with the boys he had the sensitivity for the boys and for the well-being and for the happiness and if if i can compile it together i think it's you're sending a very deep message that you're not this common type of person that takes things let them pass no you pick up on the sensitivities and on the delicate and fine materials of this world humans and in nature and you try very hard and you're not saving any effort to bring out the best in people and in in god's nature and to make the world a more supreme and fine place interesting combination you know you're saying something but i think yeah there's a lot in common in this because what you have to be is very you have to know what you're doing you have to be very meticulous and yes kids i mean children are just as a sensitive uh a sensitive thing of living living you know they're all living creatures that they say the wine is a living creature they all have we all have the enzymes we all have the bacterias we all have viola we all are in the same thing and and yeah we all we are all very very sensitive and could be spoiled with uh just like you know a little too much cooking with anything anything can go wrong at any time but like i said a clean line uh maintaining a higher sanitary level and in the human also that means that the kid goes in a nice clean environment when i'm talking about physically and and like yeah that everything you try to do that everything should go flawless and if there is a minor you know deviation yeah that you can it's under control and you can you can continue monitor it yeah you can fix it and then you keep it on course because once it goes off course it's it's either it's completely spoiled or you know it won't be a prime anymore it's it's it's a it has a lot in common in it and did you think about that before you came here uh i tell you what i didn't think about it i just leave it you know and i leave it too it's not it's not something that you know i mean yeah you heard the first part of the conversation you understand that uh i do what i understood and i tell you what this part of this thing that you asked me why did you picked up a farm and this and that i knew all that i said oh we did there is no there's not too much margin of error over there so this is like i said they said one mistake and something goes wrong you know what you do milk goes bad you spill it that's it it's in the down the drain with kids it's uh we have to wear these there i think i think this this particular should be watched by many in mexico and by many parents okay it's fine no but it's a it's an amazing deep message for all of us to know and understand and live that our kids and our generations are very prime like you start with the prime piece of meat prime human beings that need constant care i mean a kid gets born i mean what could be more pure and holy than a newborn child i mean regardless who it is you know how they said grace or color or anything i mean there's nothing more beautiful at that moment that a new child has been born and coming into the world and if you keep that path like you know and with the same like that moment devotion and dedication you you uh you know i said you want to pay like you know they said they can't guarantee but you are really on a good path to success that that that's for sure and a lot of ahmed yeah like i said you know you have to like i said yeah let me tell you something you know they said that the prayer of the farmer like you know is that one of the things is i heard it from showers that what is unique about farmers is they said because when you plow fields and and you they say you've been by me you visited my my place over there and you saw that we're putting the new facility maybe if we have time we're going to touch that that a very eventually a new thing that i put in uh you put all these things in and you you know you turn over the ground you spend that kind of uh effort and money work and this and you you plow and you plant and you you do some when when things are coming out and then you pray for rain and the rain comes it comes and the nation is nation you know and sometimes the rain comes but it's too much rain or sometimes the rain comes and we just planted you know the whole place by my new products and this i planted new grasses and everything before pesach and we were sure nice you know it's already it's not freezing and this it came this yonte the second day boom the everything got covered with nine inches of snow everything went kaput you know the the it's we have to we had to do everything you saw that they did everything and hopefully now that this thing is coming and i showed you that you see these areas you see we went up the hill over there i showed you the grasses are big because those are established and the new ones need we have to get them out of the ground so yeah it's like it's a lot of effort that you put in that you don't see in the beginning but eventually you dove into hashem and it comes like i told you you said the other day this my wife called me up and i said what are you doing now he said now i'm being a brass lover i said what do you mean what do you mean i said i'm just going in the forest now in the new place that i just finished to do that and i said thank you asham i started saying one on one one on one yeah he said he said i'm told i'm talking and said no i'm not talking to myself i'm talking to hashem and he said i i i have to say 10 times nishmasi you know like like it said imagine imagining the last said i'm ecstatic because like i got the three cups of wine and then i'm saying it they said that you for real i said yeah yeah i said you don't understand what's going on and i showed you what the seat is so imagine if if parents would would would say three times in ishmael and down for each child every day with so much heart and soul like a farm with those like you do anyway it's a big last yes it's very interesting i want to share with the audience that i visited uh mr shekhter's farm upstate and he's making amazing amazing interesting place to entertain and have a lot of is expected i'm sure thousands of campers upstate new york with ponies and rides and is bringing in a very very new unique amazing miniatures pony miniatures right for kids which and i saw advertiser this year you also have therapeutic yeah we're building a therapeutic facility um with animals well i i i tell you what if if i may i mean please you want to see all yours you said no no it's all yours i was only so i told you besides what we're doing over there the thing i started yeah i told you about the experiment that i did with the with the meat that i raised i raised away the kettle i sent you the pictures of the bahamas that we did i i there's a few things that that i do some ventures over there just to explore certain way like you know that we have the casuals with the bahamas that if if we can raise them in different ways that uh that will deliver much much kosher and bok hashem we had a nice a nice success we started i started a new idea over there with its therapy with horses like equestrian therapy and i chose to go with miniature horses the goal is that we want to implement it should be more and more widely used uh horse therapy for the kids like it's it's what you know first you can have fun with that so when we have the fun i mean that when i bought that place the i have a full-size padding zoo over there which you saw which we really built new now and uh you know it's a more new and modern facility and it's not really very very impressive and besides that i so that will be served as animal therapy so you do some kids bond with sheep goats you saw the mini donkey over there that we have is a bunch which is it is a very new concept for the yiddish hamish world i have a strong feeling that after this summer when it's hashem and hundreds and maybe thousands of kids will i i mean it's gonna let me tell you it's gonna help so many kids to what do you want more than that you saw that i have this book room that they come over here that i do now this this this new pilot with this boys that they came in i'll tell you a story about it you won't believe i just told my wife shabbos when i the voices started to come they were already coming in the winter at least and um yeah you know we could go to shiva after that you know as man as this man and and at least in that 30s i took them together and i said okay guys listen to me learning is the most important thing for me if you're missing a say they're all missing a day somebody's single darwining i'm listening at this i don't need you over here i don't want you over here right the goal over here is like this when you have a free time and you can have go come and have fun you know fulfill yourself with everything else you have you see they're building with me some buns they do some work they take care of the horses i realized that they they start taking the brushes and i told them how to you know i gave him a few lectures with simon's electric no i gave him a few lectures like with with the horses like you know some they don't need therapy but i showed them how these things go and how to handle them and i see they come in first thing they run to the horses they you know they take care of them yeah they take care of them some of them were afraid like you know shivering coming in and i got them into the cage you know to the pen and then i got them bonded with the whole and now they so bonded to the horses they come the horses already come to them they know them they they mingle together it's unbelievable they take care of they finish with that and they go they they help with the same this week they came up the few boys they stood in front of me okay this is the cut off time we decided that we're not staying here until the last minute and we'll be late we'll be here we're quitting 15 minutes before we figure this five minutes for the ride and we have five minutes in the yeshiva to be to be in the cider on time you know it didn't take long it says it's just two and a half three weeks i said wow i told my wife i said these boys already straightened up they gave me they wanted to reward me for what am i doing for them you know i took them on the police i took them a tour in the woods and that they're really having nice kosher fun but they gave me a reward they came to surprise me that they said yeah we'll be on time this is quit time i was so happy touched and this and then i think you know i constantly looking at the clock like this and you know that the shalom you know they shouldn't be this is a voice okay time is up hey they quit everything they see no they set up the tools whatever okay we're going and you know i got him into the car and i took him back it was a nice reward and i see that it really works and like i said i'm looking forward to implement this new host therapy business into the community and i think that people will have uh uh uh i mean the kids eye opener will have so much reward from from having it i mean look it works all over the world they use it for autistic kids they use it for kids that they're afraid of of you know they have uh they're afraid to communicate [Music] engage self self-esteem encouragement you know you have to they take so much accountability take away the fears but we have to constantly highlight and remind everyone again that from the outside the world looks like a very systematic place where everything goes on the track and boys do what they have to and girls that would have to and people do what they have to accomplish what they have to but unfortunately the people in the field are familiar with very very many challenges in cases by the thousands of the people that need a lot of help and we're very happy here and let's talk to us to bring a fresh look and a fresh taste of an approach to life um obviously is working in many places around the world and hopefully and for sure some and slowly more and more people will benefit from this amazing yeah that look training you don't have to be locked in some kind of a facility or something like you know to dome somewhere outstate or or this i mean we're doing the to be doing we're starting up over there and hopefully we'll spread it very hard very far because it's uh it's uh i mean i we tried it on on on kids i see it with other you know every time that that that you can address you know people and i can i can assure the the viewers and the visitors that nothing over there was done just just because everything has like a lot of your dishes it's not a bigger market all right a lot of research a lot of um a lot of research and a lot of investment and everything is done with das toile and everything goes to the door limb of the door that gives give input and give guidance and steer yankee to do things the right way and yes some people have the courage to be a little different to be a little unique and go out of the box in order to bring people back into the box that's an interesting um scenario yeah take it yeah be amen take a compliment yeah look i i maybe in our community is unique but if you look at it in the world you know we we we like to be worldly with everything else that we have we update uh you know with technology we opted to be able to be a careful way yeah of course i mean we do it in our own way like you know you see we talked before about food and and good food and culinary food and 30 40 years ago you couldn't get a decent bottle of wine now now this can i know there's a shelf that's buying these scotch these these bourbons this you name it yeah and a lot of users too a lot of users also but there could be help with our horses but now it's going to be a mess hashem the cheese is going to you know raise the bar and and you know give to the amazing you know can i know it'll be every good meets at this year well you know wherever you have those kosher magazines and stuff and so this is the ease of demand for good stuff and becoming more and more worldly so i say why not i mean every the whole world is getting therapy with horses why we are studying you know why we are standing behind as long as we do it with yeah being careful i'm sure it's going to be very successful and it's going to be advertised and everyone will have a chance to to visit and to benefit from experiments you don't have to come for therapy you can come on you can come for fun too i mean for fun and it's open for you know it's open for yeah all kinds of arenas you know you can ride with them in you can ride the minutes you can drive with the mini you can do this whatever you need and you you know you can race on a track you can ride on an arena it's a crazy jump you can go really and slowly the location is really in the heart convenient and everyone has access beautiful just before we conclude um i always like to tell to these people if i would give you now a microphone with two hundred thousand um audience of two hundred thousand eden with sixty seconds what would you wanna tell them come on go for it i don't know okay let let's do like this i believe and there's more than believe i looked after it for a while and i explored it every single one of us any human kind has he was born with a talent in other words he has a features his face his body built whatever but in himself he has the wisdom and he has besides wisdom he has a talent everyone you explore that explore the talent that you have develop it with the right way like you say in a professional way go if you go and you might as well like i said always you have you know these are eight hours of work in a day you might as well use it to the best just don't smear the hours just you know use it to the best do the max max yourself out as i said if you discover what your talents are your heart is going to be there set a goal and go for it take it serious you'll be there you'll make it it's in every single one of us there's no such thing that somebody doesn't have it the same as a god created you with the nose and ears and eyes and everything else some people think that they're not perfect or they're not this but they have it to the big of course some people have a bigger talent some things are so small but it's there find it find it go for it develop it perfect it you'll make it wow beautiful that's exactly what i when we started with let's talk tactless we said we want to take the order the so-called ordinary people and bring out in them the extraordinary and this i think was a beautiful way to conclude a beautiful interview thank you very much [Music] you
